Does anyone else have that one person who is more senior than you that is just always so condescending while adding no value themselves? I have a director who I work with (not in my direct mgmt line) that just treats everyone on my team so poorly, so I act as the shield and it’s so annoying how someone who is so disrespectful and honestly not super value-added only ask for data/questions and not provide any genuine input or recommendations.

Has your boss ever forgotten to pay your commission? Happened to me today. Actually to our entire sales team. Advice for how to respond?

How do you handle people’s kids showing up on video meetings? Screaming, kicking, hamming it up, (wasting time.) Everyone else is coo-ing…I’m not a kids person. Heard a technique which is to drop off the call bc you “assume the call is over” (which seems like a great way to get fired especially if it’s a way higher up’s kids - plus it feels rather passive aggressive.) Thoughts?

Have a really good relationship with current company, but got an amazing offer and very likely gonna leave (signed the offer, waiting for all the background checks to come back). How do you tell your boss you are leaving the company (if boss is not a dick lol) and not ruin relationship?

Anyone have experience taking an RM role in a more corporate industry (i.e. consulting, tax, finance)?

I'm curious to see what else is out there and wondering if there are pros/cons (aside from the dress codes) or if it's a "same shit, different industry" type of situation.

Feeling like it's only a matter of time before I have to tell the new marketing dept head that the snazzy jargon just makes him sound like a tryhard and alienates our customer base

Has anyone successfully pursued a relationship with someone they met at work? An MD I am really attracted to has been chasing me, but I am nervous about what the repercussions could be if it doesn't work out. Still, it's tempting

Hello! I've been struggling the last few weeks because someone on my team has been taking credit for my work. This coworker is really good with buzzwords and getting the attention of upper management. I'm feeling discouraged - what should I do?

I’m giving my notice on Monday. I’m looking for advice on:
- Checklist of things to do, both before Monday and within next 2 weeks
- Tips on convo informing Counselor / Manager
- Anything else that’s good to know / not well known

How do you have a conversation with someone that makes an unknowingly inappropriate or insensitive comment that not only impacts you but others around your office?

Do managers tend to make a scene while you put your papers?

How do you deal with a passive aggressive supervisor who regularly points fingers and throws people under the bus?

Looking for the average PwC signing bonus offered for M1/Finance Consulting/Tier 2/experienced hire. I will lose around 20-30K non vested cash if I make the switch. I can use that as leverage but I am just curious

Anyone who has transitioned from M&A work to finance work, how has your experience been? I am considering a similar transition and would love to learn about any changes to your work/life balance, stress-levels, etc.

Has anyone had a nurse state the assumed sex at 12 week ultrasound? The nurse is fairly sure it's a boy, and I'm wondering how accurate her guess is based on a close look of the genitals. Confirmation won't happen until 20 week appt, too far away!

Moving to NYC with my girlfriend. We are 26. Budget is 4K-4500 for a 1br in a luxury building. What neighborhoods should we be targeting? More so foodies than bar people. Quieter probably preferred.

Prospecting Ae’s (or bdrs) are you getting a lower open rate/filtered by spam filters due to attaching a link, screenshot or pdf? If yes, I’m curious if it’s the same drop off rate for all or if it’s different

Should I rejoin Equinox? Background: I cancelled my equinox membership because I wanted to try out different gyms. After about a month and a half, I’ve determined I really miss Equinox. It’s kind of expensive ($250 per month, but only an extra $130 over an average local gym). I like saving money but my health has definitely taken a dive because working out is not as enjoyable. Am I crazy?

Do any programs besides HBS heavily utilize the case method?

Hi all,

I have a final round interview tomorrow for an Associate Product Manager role. The interview is with the Director of Engineering and VP of Product Management.

Any idea of what questions I could expect and/or anything I should look out for in particular?

HR said it will be similar to my first round interview which was with two senior product managers. They asked questions around my background, working style, product methodologies knowledge etc.

Thanks in advance!

What is L2 interview in coforge? Will it be more of a technical round or some Senior Manager regarding other aspects?

The occasional posturing we get in here about getting fired or “cancelled” for bigoted opinions is extra silly when we consider Glassdoor makes you verify with your work email address or LinkedIn to post and if someone really thinks they’re being persecuted, Glassdoor knows who they are lol

We’re only getting older baby 🎶

How was you memorial day weekend?

Yesterday I made a blanket fort with my husband and we watched a movie and ate ice cream. Yes, it was awesome.

Hi 👋. I posted here a few weeks ago about being nervous conducting a PIP conversation with my team member.
I did it this week and let me just say it was the weirdest conversation ever. The guy is usually argumentative and tries to disprove every bit of feedback. But this time he just sat there and asked no questions and said nothing.
Maybe he’s looking for new jobs already - don’t mind this at all and this would be a good outcome for him overall.

Is it a red flag if someone says they don’t believe in self help books like Atomic Habits, Attached, etc?

There is a team at Deloitte audit whose SM bought them herbal anti stress pills to help them cope with the stress of the job. It’s a big tin of pills and they all take them together. What a toxic environment. Jesus.

The only things I wish were different in Avengers End Game were
1. For Black Widow to get a better send off (rocket literally ruins the emotional movement by startling Tony within minutes of Scarlett's death, which I felt was kind of disrespectful.)
2. For Hulk to get a re-fight with Thanos one on one or even along with the other 3 OGs.

I’m a guy and sometimes I sit when I pee so that I make less of a mess and have to clean my bathroom less frequently. On the same note, I usually shit standing up which tends to be much messier

My hidden talent is finding houses I love that are way outside my price range.

My friend’s ex is trying to win her back and she hates being single and like I ~should~ discourage this, but on a selfish level I want to be able to go out on his boat again this summer. He’s not a particularly horrible guy, but they’re a bad match when it comes to values/goals, which is why it didn’t work out the last time.

i hate this.

Why do companies even hire people to let them go "due to economic reasons" just after a week? Like the economy was all good last week and suddenly took a dump over the weekend? Seriously, when do they even learn to treat candidates like humans with families?

Getting over heartbreak and having a full time job is torture lol. My boyfriend and I just broke up after almost a year of being together. It was such a beautiful relationship but ultimately he just didn’t love me. I love him so much. My mind knows that I deserve reciprocal love and I’m worthy, but I feel physically ill. My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao

Just found out that sperm banks pay $70 per donation. I just found my side hustle 😏

Anyone here work 2 fulltime jobs? I barely work for less than 10 hours a week at my current job (except for like 2.5 months when it gets really busy). I just got an offer for a new job that I accepted. I had my performance review today which went pretty well and I’m thinking to keep my current job as it barely requires any work. Has anyone done this? Would this impact me in any way?

Big birthday coming up in a few months and wanting to do things I have never done before (tattoos, surgery, etc.) What have you done as a result of a mid life crisis?
